Sam Trickett's Team Europe Wins Caesars Cup at WSOP Asia Pacific
The 2013 World Series of Poker Caesars Cup took place on Wednesday at the WSOP Asia-Pacific in Melbourne, Australia. Defending champion Team America was pitted against Team Europe and Team Asia-Pacific in the third edition of the unique team event. In 2011, Team Americas evened the score against the Europeans during the WSOP Europe in Cannes, France. This year, the two teams competed for the cup again, and it was Team Europe back in the winner's circle after besting America 2-1 in the final.
The three teams were comprised of five players each (although Hachem added a sixth player). Here's how the squads stacked up:
Team APAC Team Europe Team Americas
Joe Hachem* Sam Trickett* Phil Ivey*
Jeff Lisandro Marvin Rettenmaier Daniel Negreanu
Jackie Glazier Phil Gruissem Antonio Esfandiari
Andrew Hinrichsen Dominik Nitsche Phil Hellmuth
Shane Warne Sam Holden Greg Merson
Richard Yong
*Team Captain
